Chapter Eighty-Seven: Seeing Joy

After Shen Changan regained his favor, he became the most favored concubine in the harem in one fell swoop.

In September of the sixth year of Yongchang, Empress Li Shushen was injured by the cold, and most of the power of the harem fell into the hands of Shen Changan.

After Shen Changan took over, he managed most of the affairs of the harem, from the concubine to the monthly payment of each palace. She even replaced Chu Luo to give the new concubines a certain position, assigned the palace, and put their green head cards into the internal affairs office for the emperor to see.

Now, it seems to be a matter of course, the sun, moon and stars, she Shen Chang'an is poor, and she only has children.

In the late spring of this year, Zhou became pregnant and moved to the Jardine Palace. Although Chang'an usually doesn't have much contact with Zhou Ruohua, she has a child, and as a concubine, Chang'an should visit. After going back and forth, she found that Ruohua was an excellent talker, and her temperament was extremely gentle. So when she was free every day, she often took Jiang Wanran to the Jardine Hall to sit together, and the three of them sat and talked together, and they also passed the long days in this deep palace.

At noon that day, the three of them were sitting in the house drinking tea, when they suddenly heard a child's cry outside. Wanran's ears were sharp, and when she heard it first, she frowned and said, "Which child is crying?" ”

Chang'an listened carefully, but felt that the voice was a little familiar, and his eyebrows suddenly moved, "It sounds a little like Yunke." ”

Ruohua smiled, took a sip of tea, and said slowly, "It won't be the eldest prince, the queen usually hurts the eldest prince so much, how can you let him come to the Jardine Palace?" Don't worry about it. ”

Chang'an's heart was gloomy, and what Fang knew Ruohua said was not unreasonable, but he couldn't sit still, so he got up and said, "Go out and have a look in this palace." ”

"Hey, sister-" Wanran saw Chang'an go out, and hurriedly got up to chase after her, Ruohua also got up when she saw this, Wanran hurriedly pressed her and said, "You have a body, don't go out, I'll just go out and have a look." ”

As soon as Chang'an went out, she heard the child's crying getting stronger and stronger, she looked for the sound, and found Yunke in the corner of the side courtyard of the Yihe Palace.

"Yunke!" She crouched down and hurried to hug him.

When Yun Ke saw Chang'an, he immediately stopped crying, threw himself into Chang'an's arms at once, and called in a low voice, "Mother Shen." ”

"Why did you come here alone?" Chang'an reached out and gently stroked Yun Ke's little head, got up and hugged him, "Go back with Concubine Shen." ”

Wanran, who chased all the way, saw Chang'an coming towards her with Yun Ke in her arms, and was immediately startled, and hurriedly said, "Oh, it's really the eldest prince, why are you here, come in." ”

When they arrived at the gate of the Jardine Palace, a group of palace people hugged Chang'an and Yun Ke to enter, Ruohua saw that it was really Yun Ke, and hurriedly asked the aunt in the small kitchen to make cloud cakes, sugar steamed cheese and pea yellow noodles and send them over. Yun Ke was obviously frightened, lying low in Chang'an's arms like a little beast that had only been injured, and Ren Wanwan sent the snack to him and refused to take a bite.

Chang'an sighed lightly and said gently, "Let's go to Fengluan Palace to report, the eldest prince is here, don't make the queen anxious." ”

Ruohua nodded, and immediately summoned his personal palace maid Nuan Xiang to Fengluan Palace.

Not long after, the queen brought a group of people to the Jardine Palace.

The queen was still sick, her face was a little pale, and she walked in step by step with Yuzhi's support. As soon as she saw Yun Ke, she immediately shed two lines of tears, and before she could speak, Yun Ke jumped from Chang'an's arms and threw herself in front of the queen.

"Queen Mother!"

The queen hugged Yun Ke tightly, and her tears couldn't stop falling. Yuzhi stood aside, and kept muttering, "It's good to find it, it's good to find it, it's really scared of the slave to death......"

Before Yuzhi's words fell, she received a heavy slap in the face.

Yuzhi used to be an old man by the queen mother's side, and since then she has been with the queen for many years, and she has always been highly respected, but at this time, she was slapped in front of a group of palace people, and even Chang'an couldn't help but be startled.

The queen was furious and said angrily, "How do you take care of the eldest prince!" If something happens to Yun Ke today, you don't want to live! ”

As soon as Yuzhi heard this, she immediately knelt down in front of the queen, and said resignedly, "What the queen taught is that it is all the fault of the slave maid, if the eldest prince has three long and two short, the slave and maid's old life is not enough to compensate......"

When the queen heard this, she was already trembling with anger, and her already pale face looked even paler at this moment.

The queen openly slapped Yuzhi, and Yun Ke, who was protected by her, was already trembling with fright, and suddenly cried out with a "wow". Chang'an suddenly felt distressed, and hurriedly got up and said to Yun Ke, "Yun Ke comes, come to Concubine Shen." ”

Before the queen could react, Yun Ke had already broken free from the queen's hand and ran towards Chang'an's arms. Chang'an hugged Yun Ke to his lap and gently stroked his young shoulder. Seeing this, the queen gradually calmed down, she looked at Chang'an levelly, her face was as calm as a wall, and she slowly spoke, "Thank you for today's matter." ”

Chang'an bowed slightly, handed Yun Ke into Wanran's arms, and was just about to get up, when he suddenly felt dizzy and almost fell down.

Fortunately, Wanxiang held on tightly by her side, and Wen Yan said with concern, "Is the master okay?" ”

As soon as the words fell, Chang'an only felt even more dizzy, his body was weak, and he suddenly lost consciousness. Wanran screamed in fright, and before she could put Yun Ke down, she hurriedly rushed to Chang'an's side, and called out in a lost voice, "Sister, wake up, don't scare me-"

Ruohua was a little dazed in a hurry, and hurriedly called out, "Come on, come on, what's wrong!" ”

The cold smoke outside heard the sound and hurriedly ran in, and when he saw this situation, he cried all at once. The crowd was crowded, and there was chaos at this time. Yuzhi got up and held the queen tightly, the queen tried her best to calm her mind, and immediately raised her voice, "What are you doing here in a daze?" Don't hurry up and announce the Imperial Doctor! ”

When Chang'an woke up, he found himself in the Chonghua Palace. She opened her eyes slightly and saw a group of people gathered in front of her bed, Chu Luo sat on the edge of the bed, the queen, Zhong Yuxiu, Zhao Nanyan, Jiang Wanran, Zhou Ruohua...... Almost all the concubines she could name came, she was surprised, and when she was about to ask, Zihan suddenly jumped in front of her bed.

"Mother Shen!" Zihan rested his head on Chang'an's arm and looked at her fixedly.

"Zihan? Why are you here too? Chang'an reached out and rubbed Zihan's hair, but Zihan just leaned to the side obediently, looking at Chang'an with a smile on his face.

Chang'an was even more puzzled at this time, and when he looked around, everyone had a smile on their faces, and even Zhong Yuxiu, who had always been smiling, barely managed to smile a little.

"Mother Shen." Yun Ke suddenly came over, squeezed Zihan behind him at once, and quietly leaned over Chang'an's side and said, "Mother Shen, let me tell you, my father said that Yun Ke is about to have a royal brother." ”

"Huh?!" Chang'an was taken aback, turned his face to look at Zhou Ruohua in the crowd, and couldn't help but say in surprise, "Could it be that Zhou Chongyuan's baby is definitely the prince?" ”

When Zhou Ruohua heard this, she couldn't help but hide her lips and smile.

The doubts in Chang'an's eyes were silent, and he was about to sit up with his body propped up, when Chu Luo saw this, he immediately grabbed her hand, leaned on her side and helped her up. His palms were warm and strong, and she looked at him quietly, but she could hear his voice full of joy coming into her ears, "Don't move, you're pregnant." ”

"What?" Chang'an was taken aback again, and his brain suddenly went blank.

Seeing this, Nanyan couldn't help laughing, "The noble concubine is so happy." ”

Chu Luo smiled slightly, he shook Chang'an's hand vigorously, and his eyebrows were full of joy that could not be concealed, "Chang'an, we finally have our own children." ”

Chang'an was in a trance and was placed in a hollow, and he was so surprised that he couldn't speak for a while. Her hand landed lightly on her lower abdomen, still flat, but there was already a child in it.

At this moment, she didn't know whether to be happy or worried, she looked around, and said to Chu Luo with a look of disbelief, "But is it right?" Didn't the doctor diagnose it wrong? ”

Chu Luo smiled warmly, and immediately called out, "Zhu Zheng! ”

Zhu Zheng, who was waiting outside, hurriedly trotted into the hall, Chu Luo glanced at him, and said suddenly, "You come and tell the concubine." ”

Zhu Zheng faced Chang'an, arched his hand, and said respectfully, "Back to Guifei Niangniang, you are indeed more than a month pregnant, and Weichen has already taken the pulse, no doubt about it." ”

Chang'an heard Zhu Zheng say this, so she calmed down a little, but she still felt uncomfortable when she looked at so many people around her.

Chu Luo could see her worries at the moment, and hurriedly waved his hand, signaling everyone to retreat.

At this time, only Chang'an and Chu Luo were left in the main hall. Chu Luo's hand was tightly clasped with her, but there was a bit of concern and anxiety in his joy, "You suddenly fainted just now, does it matter now?" ”

Chang An shook his head sympathetically, and suddenly said, "Why did the emperor come to Chonghua Palace?" ”

Chu Luo stretched out his hand to tie her loose sideburns, and looked at her with doting in his eyes, "The queen sent someone to tell me, as soon as I heard that you had fainted, I hurriedly came to the Chonghua Palace. ”

When Chang'an heard this, her heart warmed, but at this moment, she didn't know what to say, so she could only look at Chu Luo in a daze.

After so many years, so many years, she finally had his child.

When she watched Zihan, Yun Ke, and Yuerong land one by one, why didn't she want to have a child of her own? But now that she has, she doesn't have that eagerness and excitement.

For Chang'an's situation at this time, she needs a child to consolidate her position, or she needs a child to accompany her for the rest of her life.

But out of affection, she didn't really want a child from Chu Luo.

Her fingers landed lightly on her lower abdomen and she sighed inwardly.

Or, this child is here to save her, to save her and Chu Luo's soon-to-be-broken relationship.

Thinking like this, Chang'an's heart suddenly calmed down a lot.
